Scientific paper

The aim of this proposal is to find the missing link between solar-like coronal activity and the coronal activity of ``active'' stars---stars that can have X-ray luminosities 10,000 times that of the active Sun. The xi UMa AB system is the brightest intermediate activity object in X-rays and the optically identical AB components---one a rapid rotator the other not--are separated by 2 arcsec and can be spatially resolved in Chandra HETG spectra. An 80ks HETG observation will provide the first and only opportunity to spatially and spectrally resolve the system and will allow us to perform a comparitive study of identical stars at different activity levels.
